You'll spend more on making a Duraflex kit fit than you'll save over buying one of the other Amuse rep kits.

There's a couple other Amuse reps - Shine Auto, Fly1, etc if I remember right. Duraflex is well known to be the worst.

Have you read the fitment warranty statement from Duraflex. You may also notice that the rear bumper is poorly executed. The indentation for center piece/cross bar does not go as deep as the other reps. It is only as deep as oem and looks aweful in person. I've seen it and really can't get past how bad it looks. Many who bought it may have not noticed it until later on after install or when someone brings it up. cooltoy pointed it out on other threads and is an accurate statement.

Don't buy it! I bought it from duraflex and guess where the rear bumper is? It's in the dumpster because I couldn't sell mine. It's so bad I threw it away!

I went with oem nismo body kit. I wish I went with shine auto for an amuse rear bumper.
